Tim "Coop DeVille" will be missed by the lives of the people that he touched. In one way or another, he brought joy and laughter to so many people. I hold a special place in my heart for Tim - for the person he truly was. Despite the challenges and obstacles that he endured, he was a kind, loving and thoughtful soul. I will always remember him for the caring spirit that he unveiled too me.

Timmy was one of my best friend's growing up we were always together.
We grew apart later as I moved away. I will always remember all the fun times we had and his love for riding wheelies.
Rest in peace brother. I will never forget you
